New Jersey Map Scavenger Hunt

Discover New Jersey Through an Engaging Map Activity\nThe New Jersey Map Scavenger Hunt is an interactive 4-page teaching resource that allows students to explore key geographical features and cities across the state of New Jersey. Educators introduce learners to using cardinal and intermediate directions on a map while having them locate important sites like Trenton, Newark, Atlantic City, and more. Questions guide students to find major bodies of water such as the Atlantic Ocean and Delaware River in addition to identifying landforms and national parks. This standalone activity can be used individually or as part of a broader New Jersey or Northeast Region of the United States unit. The New Jersey Map Scavenger Hunt transforms a state map into an opportunity for investigation that keeps young geographers engaged.
